Post Partum Psychotherapy

If you’re in the postpartum period, you’re likely experiencing a complex mix of emotions: joy, gratitude, fatigue, confusion, maybe even anxiety.

Many mothers realize that while the world around them moves on, their inner world has changed completely.

As a psychotherapist, I’ve worked with many women who felt overwhelmed after giving birth, not because they weren’t ready, but because no one truly prepares you for the emotional intensity of this transition.

Postpartum therapy offers a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your emotions, understand what’s happening, and regain a sense of balance and stability.

What happens during the postpartum period

Research shows that up to 80% of new mothers experience baby blues: a short period of emotional instability caused by hormonal changes and adjustment to life with a newborn.

For some, these feelings can develop into postpartum depression, which impacts emotional well-being, self-confidence, and relationships.

Beyond the biological shifts, there are also psychological ones: pressure to “do everything right,” guilt, fear of not being enough, and a sense of losing yourself.

Therapy helps you normalize these emotions, release self-judgment, and find the tools to navigate this stage with self-compassion.

Postpartum therapy is not a weakness. It’s an act of self-care.

A conscious choice to prioritize yourself, because your emotional well-being is essential for your baby’s too.

The relational side of postpartum therapy

Postpartum changes don’t only affect mothers - they reshape the couple’s relationship too.
Distance, misunderstandings, and frustration can appear even in strong relationships.
Therapy helps you rebuild open communication, mutual support, and emotional closeness.

A connected couple creates a calm and secure environment, the kind of home every child needs to thrive.

A step back toward yourself

Postpartum therapy is an investment in your long-term emotional health and in the quality of your relationships.

It’s an opportunity to rediscover yourself and feel grounded again.
